Big end beaing gone?
Hey,
Just noticed something lately in my sti, when i start it up, it idles very smooth. But when i just touch the accelerater, theres like a small bit of knocking. This goes out of it after a few mins when its warmed up. And also on a high rev there is no knocking sound(sounds like prr.rrr.rrrr.rrrr) A guy told me he thinks the big end bearings are going?:wonder: any help? Theres also only 27k miles on the engine so its like new. |
could just be the injectors they are pretty noisey mate
|
piston slap if only whilst cold most likely
|
is this still a problem in the newage cars:iamwithst

thanks for the reply, the piston slap sounds right as it was the coldest day so far(snow). thanks for the reply guys.
also the sti is 98 |
how many miles you up to now
|
theres 27K miles on it now
|
maybe its dew to the cold weather.
noticed mine ticks louder when starting it in very cold weather. |
Common on 98 classics too just keep an eye on it :)

name and shame the guy who thought your big-ends had gone! :rolleyes:
Deffo piston slap. Big end noise would be there all the time! |
